We’re in Glasgow, where there’s something to do no matter what the weather is like.

If the rain does keep up (unfortunately, it probably will) here are some ways to spend your days.

Riverside Museum

Formerly the Museum of Transport, the museum has been a family favourite day out for decades. Riverside is home to some of the worlds finest cars, ships and locomotives.

The hugely popular Glasgow street scene is a wonderful walk-through exhibit where visitors can, quite literally, take a trip down memory lane. With over 3000 objects on display, there really is something for everyone. And with a fantastic cafe on site, that’s lunch sorted, too.

The Science Centre

This uniquely shaped building sits not far from the Riverside Museum. It’s been a must-see visitor attraction since it opened, presenting concepts of science and technology in a family-friendly and inspiring way.

Visit the IMAX and catch the latest blockbuster, experience unrivalled panoramic views of the city in the Glasgow Tower, browse through 3 floors of hands-on exhibits in the science mall or go gazing in the Planetarium. There is indoor and outdoor cafe space, too.

Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum

Since it’s refurbishment ended in 2006, Kelvingrove has been the most popular free-to-enter visitor attraction in Scotland.

Gaze at the iconic Spitfire LA198, marvel at the honey bees in the Kelvingrove hive, and feel adventurous with the collections of armour. The KG cafe is in the basement of the museum: a perfect way to round off all that exploring.

Scotland Street School Museum

Designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, the school now tells the story of 100 years of education in Scotland. Let the kids see what life was like for their predecessors: from writing on slates, to playing hopscotch in the playground. There is even the chance to dress up as a pupil from the past.

The building itself is full of architectural delights, and includes access to three reconstructed classrooms. The Willow Cafe is a really nice setting for a hot family lunch.

The People’s Palace & Winter Gardens

This is a great day out for all the family, with plenty of interactive exhibits. The building itself feels like a proper adventure. Discover how Glaswegians have lived, worked and socialised for hundreds of years.

Whether you were “gaun dancing”, needed to visit “the steamie” or found yourself in “the jile”, there’s plenty to laugh and learn with throughout the museum. With paintings, photographs and historical artefacts, this really is a true story of the people. The cafe offers a special children’s menu.

Get sporty

After a busy day, why not unwind at a nice restaurant before making your way on to a pub or club.

Edinburgh might be Scotland's capital city, but if it's a good night out you're after then Glasgow is where it's at with clubs for all ages and tastes.
